The Realities Problem in Modern Philosophy
A new translation of Heidegger's early work "The Realities Problem in Modern Philosophy '', originally published in 1912 under the German title "Das Realitats Problem in der Modernen Philosophie". This edition contains a new afterword by the Translator, a timeline of Heidegger's life and works, a philosophic index of core Heideggerian concepts and a guide for Existentialist terminology across 19th and 20th century Existentialists. This translation is designed for readability and accessibility to Heidegger's enigmatic and dense philosophy. Complex and specific philosophic terms are translated as literally as possible and academic footnotes have been removed to ensure easy reading. This work is critical to understand his initial approach to Ontochronology, leading to his advanced theories on the Phenomenology of Time in his major work "Being and Time". Heidegger argues here that time in the historical sciences is not a homogeneous, mathematical series as it is in physics, but rather a qualitative, context-dependent concept. He emphasises the importance of understanding time in relation to the specific aims and methodologies of historical science, and posits that time in history has a unique meaning and function, deeply bound up with the cultural and human context of historical events. This approach reflects a broader philosophical inquiry into the nature of being and temporality that Heidegger would develop in his later works. Metaphysics has triumphed over Rationalism and Empiricism as the only field that is vectored towards "the only question that matters".
